Actually, that is a silly suggestion as only one additional team would have been relegated in the last 10 years, Nottingham Forest last season. In all other 9 seasons, 17th placed teams achieved at least 35 points.
This year it does look like the points required to stay up will be relatively low, as it was last year with Luton 3rd from bottom on 26. Previously, though, Leicester were 18th on 34 and in 2022 Burnley on 35. Highest in the last 10 years was Newcastle on 37 in 2016. Maybe it should be changed...

Where I think it is unfair is in the Loyalty Point tiers. For example, 3000 tickets are available, of which, say, 2500 are snapped up by tier 1 point-holders. This leaves 500 available on day 2 of the sale for purchase by tier 2 point holders. There may be 1000 of these people, all with various...
